ASP.NET asp:menu does not display Child Menu items in IE 8

  • Artikel

Strange.  I found in my personal website the Child menus were not showing when I hovered over the root menu item.

There is nothing special about the menus.  They are standard asp:menu items created when I dragged the menu tool from the navigation tools in Visual Studio 2008.

UPDATE: Fix

https://support.microsoft.com/kb/962351

Has the hotfix to apply to your server.

 

In my case my site was hosted by another company and I did not have access to update asp.net on the server, so I chose workaround #2.

I found two workarounds:

1.  Add the IE7 compatability Meta information: IE=EmulateIE7
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc288325(VS.85).aspx#SetMode

2.  Add this style:

.DynamicMenuZIndex

{

z-index: 999;

}

    and then apply it to the menu:

<DynamicMenuStyle CssClass="DynamicMenuZIndex"/>

 

Let me know if this helped you!

    I found that option 2 causes the menu to not work properly in Safari and Chrome.

    I see a bunch of info on the net regarding z-index problems with Safari and Chrome.  Can you insert code to test the browser platform to work around the issue?

    Simply add the style to your .css stylesheets.  You can put it at the top of the .css file if you wish.
